Earth is not merely a system to manage but an agential complex to govern with. Authors Frederic Hanusch, Liza Bauer, Clemens Finkelstein, and Claus Leggewie propose a new approach for planetary politicsone that recognizes the collective agencies of nonliving, living, and technological actors as integral to our coexistence.Rather than relying on human proxies to represent more-than-human concerns, the book shows how to do politics with planetary agenciesrivers and forests, cyclones and currents, even space weatherthat actively shape political conditions. Across seven chapters, the authors unsettle inherited ideas of political subjectivity and representation, outlining a conceptual and practical framework for engaging these agencies that operate outside conventional registers of deliberation.Merging political theory and the environmental humanities with research on planetary dynamics, ecological relations, and technological infrastructures alongside Indigenous and non-Western knowledges, this book introduces an actionable model for rethinking politics for the planetary age.
